Owls Split Two-Game Showing With Mercy

DOBBS FERRY, N.Y. – The Southern Connecticut State University softball squad split a pair of games with Mercy College, a 5-3 win and a 6-3 loss at Smith Field. The Owls improve to 3-17 overall, while the Mavericks improve to 12-10 on the year.
 
Junior Sara Buscetto (Waterford, Conn.) had a breakout day where she went 4-for-8 including her first home run of the season, three runs, two RBI and a stolen base. Freshman Jacqueline Dumont (Nashua, N.H.) continued her hot streak going 3-for-7 including her third home run of the season, while adding three RBI and two runs. Freshman Alexa Bacoulis (Monroe, Conn.) exploded in game one going 4-for-4 adding a run as well.
 
Game 1 – (Southern Connecticut 5, Mercy 3)
  • The Owls got rolling early as Dumont blasted a three-run home run in the top of the first to bring Buscetto and Bacoulis around the horn and give Southern a 3-0 lead.
  • Mercy tried to find their groove in the fourth inning scoring on a wild pitch, cutting the Owls lead to two.
  • They threatened again in the seventh inning after they tied the game on a Yiannah Bowman double to right field, 3-3.
  • Bacoulis had other plans for the game as she singled through the left side to score Maria Zecena (Stamford, Conn.). Liz DeRosa (Hudson, N.H.) reached on a dropped pop up by the first baseman, which allowed Buscetto to sneak home and give the Owls a 5-3 lead. The Mavericks were unable to capitalize in the bottom half of the inning leading Southern Connecticut to capture a 5-3 win in game one.
  • Sophomore Jazmyn Martinez (Middletown, N.Y.) captured her second win of the season, pitching a complete game with seven strikeouts in 33 batters faced.
 
Game 2 – (Mercy 6, Southern Connecticut 3)
  • Southern Connecticut struck first again in game two as Cailey Botteon (Moodus, Conn.) hit a RBI single to the pitcher that allowed Dumont to score, 1-0.
  • The game remained 1-0 for the next two innings before Buscetto knocked a two-run home run to right field that gave the Owls a 3-0 lead.
  • Mercy scored six unanswered runs in the sixth inning to capture the 6-3 game two win at Smith Field.
